Knot A knot is a method of fastening or securing linear material such as rope by tying or interweaving. It may consist of a length of one or several segments of rope, string, webbing, twine, strap, or even chain interwoven such that the line can bind to itself or to some other object (the load).ometimes a knot is intentionally capsized as a method of tying another knot, as with the lightning method of tying a bowline.

Torus knot (2,8) torus link. In knot theory, a torus knot is a special kind of knot that lies on the surface of an unknotted torus in R 3. Similarly, a torus link is a link which lies on the surface of a torus in the same way.Each torus knot is specified by a pair of coprime integers p and q. A torus link arises if p and q are not coprime (in which case the number of components is gcd (p, q)).A torus knot is trivial (equivalent to the unknot) if and only if either p or q is equal to 1 or −1. The simplest nontrivial example is the (2,3)-torus knot, also known as the trefoil knot. torus knot is trivial iff either p or q is equal to 1 or −1. Each nontrivial torus knot is prime and chiral. The (p, q) torus knot is equivalent to the (q, p) torus knot. This can be proved by moving the strands on the surface of the torus, which is nicely illustrated here.
